Decorating

We found a sweet computer desk by the dumpster recently and decorated it with some of my paperweights.

Thanks for looking!

Lizard Paperweights

I've been recently trying to keep the paperweights a bit bigger as the normal size which has allowed me to fit two lizards on a paperweight :) Maybe an extra lizard will try to sneak on a future paperweight! These little guys are on Etsy.

More Paperweights

I can't keep away from making more paperweights! More coming soon :)

New Wood Stand

I stopped by Home Depot recently and I found alder and poplar strips that I thought would look great glued together. The wood is finished with some natural danish oil and it really makes the alder pop! The paperweight is 1.25in diameter :)

Paperweights on Wooden Stands

I've been having a lot of fun making paperweights and wooden stands lately. The darker stands were made by my dad, however I will be picking up some darker stain later today :) I have a bunch of paperweights that are just waiting for the stands, so once those are done I will make another entry with those :)

Turtles

I've started working on a new series of turtle sculpture beads. Eventually I'll start working on other sea creatures like jellyfish, octopus and fish.

Turtle Family. This one is one of my favorites, there is an adult turtle and two baby turtles.

Reversed Snakeskin

I've been wanting to add silver foil to my snakeskin beads but I couldn't figure out how to add them to individual dots. Then I was reading a tutorial in The Flow magazine for a different technique but it hit me to do lines instead of dots! Here is the outcome :D

Dreaming of Spring!

It seems like spring is on Andrea's mind :) Maybe with the mild winter everyone seems to be having there will be some real flowers soon!

Lots Of Dots!

I have been trying to get back into the grove of torching and dots have been calling my name lately. These are from some recent torch sessions :)

Thanks for looking! :)

Back In Action!

We have been torching a little bit again recently as we are making changes in our life. We both gave our two week notices at our work. I'll be working on our two business fulltime and Andrea will be as well but with a part time job of 10-18 hours a week. So there will be a lot more updates on our blog! 

Here is some pictures of some recent work :)
